Types and kinds

[FalaGringo]

When asking questions, would it be better to use the plural or the singular form of "Kind" and "Type"?

1. What type of food do you like?
2. What types of foods do you like?
3. What type of men do you like?
4. What types men do you like?
5. What type of books do you read?
6. What types of books do you read?

It depend on whether you want a singular or plural answer.
